Thinking about buying a Rubicon to use for work... Have some concerns with it though. Mainly, about pulling my enclosed trailer (7x13) Any owners on here have any insight they can share?
Realistic mileage? Common problems?

Fuel MPG, figure 15-20. If you put a trailer behind it drop that to 8-12. Seriuosly my friend has one tows a little 17 foot boat goes from mid teens on MPG to sigle digits.

You will need a winch to get over anything with a grade steeper than a wheel chair can go up. You will find 4 wheel drive means that only two wheels work sometimes, the other two are along for the ride unless they cant do a thing then they will spin like canaval ride. If you ever rode a motorcycle next to a 18 wheeler that is only 1/2 as bad as this in a breeze that wont blow papers off a table.

My sister had nothing but problems with hers. Underpowered, rode bad, horrible gas mileage. If you tow, get a diesel. Jeep does not make one. Chevy, Ford or Dodge, trucks. As a SUV, crappy ride. Just say no! JMHO, Joe

I have only rented them. I was impressed with the build quality and how tight they were. They rode hard, but I expected that from a Jeep. To their credit the ride had just enough compliance to not be harsh, so I thought Jeep did a very good job of walking that very fine line between hard core off road and something you can live with on public roads.
The only quality that made me uncomfortable was cornering. Even mild on ramps the surprisingly early onset of understeer had me wondering how it would behave, or mis-behave, if you had to make a sudden evasive maneuver or discovered you had misjudged a corner or an off ramp.
That said, I could probably find a half dozen pick ups better suited for towing and better all around road vehicles.

So many of you will have been looking at bike pics and their riders for much longer than me.
What is the one picture stored on your hard disc that is the coolest, baddest, either the motorcycle or the person on it? Both would be perfect

OK, since it's my thread I'll start first.
I am in a family business that wholesales rugs and carpets to retailers. We have been around for 25 years. I have been here the last 15 out of college. I am the 'technology guru' (I am sure some of you guys could run rings around me) responsible for...

Hello all, Hope every one is getting plenty riding during this pandemic!
I'm looking for some one to pick up and exhaust and ship it for me from Pennsylvania to New Zealand? Dont mind shouting some beer! Only reason I ask as I'm just weary of the chap selling it ( new account ). Cheers in advance
